"It All Happens Happily on a Heaven of a Houseboat!"

U

  • Director: Melville Shavelson
  • Genre: Comedy, Drama, Family, Romance
  • Studio: Paramount Pictures
  • Subtitled | Widescreen | Duration: 120 Mins

Overview:
This delightfully played, relatively unsophisticated comedy is based on a slim but oh-so-romantic premise, as lovely Sophia Loren takes charge of lawyer Cary Grant's three children and, eventually of course, Grant himself. It's the kind of movie where Loren's knees become a plot pivot, and there's the bonus of her singing and dancing, too. Look out for a fabulous supporting performance from Harry Guardino as a handyman in wolf's clothing. Needless to say, Grant sails through the movie with accomplished ease. This easy-on-the-eye glamfest is beautifully photographed by Ray June (who did a similarly fabulous job of Funny Face).
